Product Description

Jack Frost was supposed to be on holiday, but with one child dead and another reported missing, there was no chance, no matter how much it pained Chief Superintendent Mullett to recall his scruffiest, most irreverent officer to duty. Had the same person taken both boys? Was there any connection with the pervert who silently entered houses at night to stab babies in their cots? Questions, questions and more questions. And so very few answers.

David Jason, who plays D. I. Jack Frost in the TV adaptations, brings R D Wingfield's characters to vivid life in this compelling reading.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Complex gripping crime novel. Much darker and funnier than the TV series, and Frost is even more disreputable than his TV counterpart.

Hard frost 6 Mar 2009
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Another good read in the Frost series. Rather more earthy than the television adaptation but fast with lots of intertwined plots.

Offensive but very funny, Jack Frost is a brilliant character. This book is unputdownable. Much better than the televised series. I cant wait for the next one.

Better Even Than The TV Series
Having watched most, if not all, of the David Jason TV series, I wasn't sure whether reading the book was such a good idea, but I was in for a very pleasant surprise. Read more

Frost is great
Forget the ITV TV programme, this is nothing like it.
Grim, dirty and basic, really great dialogue.
If only ITV had stuck to this it would be even better.. Read more

Hard Frost - hard to take
I bought this book after having seen David Jason as Frost on TV. I was shocked and offended at the sexist language and attitude to women in the written text. Read more

Highly entertaining with a memorably cunning misdirection in the main child kidnapping case but the other cases swirling around are also infused with imagination and character. Read more
